from yahoo thread......."Friday action by: stk_ept 7/22/00 4:37 pm Msg: 29373 of 29373 I repect all people on this message board, which I regarded it as the best one in Yahoo. I didnt short this stock even I was quite sure that it would drop at 138 when I mention it was dangerous cree. I just want to tell that the price action is purly manipulated by market maker when the volumn dry up. The Firday action is useless. Being a very skillful investor, I dont like that MM has such a clear and strong power on cetain stock. That is what I mean "on dangerous Cree". It doesnt mean you have to short Cree. I bought CREE last year and it is one of most profitable stocks I have with other ones like SDL and JDSU. I am looking for next SDL or Cree. Start to set up position at BKHM. I exited Cree position thursday and is waiting for mondy's action. It will be bullish sign to close above 140.
